PyPy dev here. Yes to both - all of them and it was a right slog. If it doesn’t work report an issue. We have a proposal looking for funding to make it fast.

This is wonderful news to me. So broadly speaking I should be able to drop in replace cpython with pypy for my fairly not so special projects?
I have a Django app that does some heavy data serialization and I'm not yet ready to optimize those serializers in another language.
I can't wait to try this out.
Crumb. I didn't realise pypy is on 3.5.3. Loves me my f strings.

We backported fstrings to 3.5. We also have an alpha quality linux 3.6 available on nightly builds

Great! I appreciate you sharing this. I checked the PyPy main page, Downloads page, and Compatibility page and while I didn't look exhaustively, nothing mentioned 3.6 or 3.6 features.

f-strings were "backported" to pypy and work fine.
No, numpy and pandas break with every new release, support for them is constantly lagging behind. Other C libraries too...
Literally all of them, without any issues? I'm working on implementing support for Ruby's C extensions in an alternative implementation and it's a right slog.
